ULTUM in parvo is the demand of this 
one hundred mile an hour age. Condensa¬ 
tion and concentration prevent condem¬ 
nation. 

Even the physician is caught in the maelstrom of 
speed and to keep up with the ever-hurrying procession 
insists that his necessities be presented to him in as 
brief and succinct a fashion as is commensurate with 
accuracy. The styles in giving the physician his mental 
pabulum have changed with the rest. Thousand page 
text books have been cut to half the size. Manuals 
sell better than large volumes. The physician requires 
the elimination of verbiage and asks only for plain 
statements of fact. 

Glandular therapy stands pre-eminent today. Physi¬ 
cians are obtaining striking results with this method 
of treatment and results count. The products of 
Reed & Carnrick have for more than half a century 
aided the doctor in restoring his patients to normal. 
Our pioneer work in organo-therapy has resulted in 
revolutionary changes in various lines of practise. 

Nephritis does not carry the inevitable death 
sentence since the advent of Nephritin. Dyspepsia 
has been robbed of its terrors by Peptenzyme. Con¬ 
stipation, the physician's bete noir^ can be conquered 
by Pancrobilin. Metabolic equilibrium, always dis¬ 
turbed by illness, is restored by Protonuclein.

The internal secretions, the great factor in the 
treatment of disease, have been harnessed and are 
under physiological control. Physicians are hungry 
for a wider knowledge of pluri-glandular therapy. It 
is given to them in the pages of this book. We present 
a vade-mecum in the form of this manual. 

Stripped of unnecessary and picturesquely painted 
language, we are giving the profession veritably much 
in little, for in the confines of comparatively few pages 
is set forth all the whys and wherefores of therapy 
through the agency of the internal secretions. 

Authoritative information has not been sacrificed 
to brevity, but every effort has been made so that 
“he who runs may read'' and get complete knowledge 
of a most important subject with the least difficulty. 

In other words, keeping abreast with the times, we 
are offering the medical profession complete, condensed 
and concentrated data, in clear and concise language, 
on the therapy of the products manufactured by us 
exclusively for the medical profession. 

A complete therapeutic index of the contents of this 
book will be found on page fifty-six. 

This book is in reality multum in parvo. It has been 
prepared expres^sly for you at considerable labor and 
great expense. Nothing has been left undone to make 
it a valuable and handsome addition to your library. 
The followers of its teachings will have the satisfaction 
of realizing that their patients are receiving the very 
best in up-to-date therapy.

Appendicitis. 






























[GESTiON often marks the difference between 
normal men and misanthropes'', is a saying 
usually accredited to one or the other of 
three great Americans whose words of wit 
and wisdom have come thundering down the pages of 
time—Benjamin Franklin, Abraham Lincoln and Henry 
Ward Beecher. Be the author who he may, the words 
are entirely true. 

The big, strong, normally healthy man of today 
may, under certain adverse physical conditions, become 
the crabbed, grouchy, sardonic melancholic of a few 
days hence. Geniality makes way for dourness and 
good health is succeeded by pessimistic ill nature. 

When the evils of dyspepsia fix themselves upon the 
hapless individual his doom is sealed as far as “life, 
liberty and the pursuit of happiness" is concerned. 

The troublesome and even dangerous bypaths 
through which indigestion may lead the unwary sufferer 
make it incumbent upon the physician, who would 
succeed as a practitioner, to know this subject from 
alpha to omega, and knowing it, to apply the knowledge 
to the intelligent remedying of the ailment. 

Foolish is the man and heartless as well who would 
attempt to minimize the seriousness of dyspepsia. Its 
consequences are so momentous that it should be placed 
in a class by itself and treated accordingly. 

What is digestion.^ 



[ 7 ] 













Digestion is that process which renders food-stuffs 
soluble and absorbable by the action of the hormones 
and enzymes in the saliva, gastric juice, bile, pancreatic 
and intestinal secretion, aided by some mechanical 
action. 

That is a high spot picture of the process of 
digestion and brings into view those busy little workers, 
the hormones and enzymes, with which we will become 
more interested before this verbal reel is entirely shown. 

What is dyspepsia.^ 

It comes from two Greek words—ill and to digest. 
The definition is “impairment of the power or function 
of digestion.’’ There are many kinds of dyspepsia, 
such as acid, atonic, catarrhal, cholelithic, colon, fer¬ 
mentative, flatulent, functional, gastric, intestinal, 
nervous, ovarian, reflex and salivary. This formidable 
array is indicative of the symptoms which are, in the 
public mind, classed under the one general head of 
dyspepsia. 

Every case of dyspepsia has a cause and most of 
them can be relieved if the cause be found and removed 
and the case treated with intelligence and a good remedial 
agent. 

Nature, the medical school and practical experience, 
has presumably supplied one of these commodities and 
Peptenzyme can furnish the other. 

What is Peptenzyme.^ 

Just imagine a combination of all the ferments 
involved in the process of digestion and you have 
Peptenzyme. Perchance a more formal description 
would better suit the purpose. 

Peptenzyme is a combination of all the hormones, 
enzymes and internal secretions found in the salivary, 
peptic, pancreatic, splenic and intestinal glands. This 
does not mean that certain sundry ferments are singled 


out and placed in the combination— not one escapes. 
This makes Peptenzyme diperfect physiological succedan- 
eum for the real thing. Indeed it is the real thing, trans¬ 
ferred from the alimentary tract of the animal into the 
alimentary tract of man. 

In short, Peptenzyme will digest food when the 
gastro-intestinal tract is approaching enzymic bank¬ 
ruptcy. 

And one is justified in rising to inquire— why? 

Let us logically reason together for a moment. 

It has been an antiquated custom among some physi¬ 
cians to treat their cases of dyspepsia with pepsin or 
pancreatin, in combination or alone. If either pepsin or 
pancreatin, alone of all the ferments, be missing, this 
method of treatment leaves little to be desired. But when 
the patient has an abundant supply of pepsin and pan¬ 
creatin, but lacks sadly sufficient rennin, enterokinase, 
lipase, erepsin, invertase or lactase, what possible 
benefit can he receive from the ingestion of more pepsin 
or more pancreatin.^ It would work quite as well if he 
poured it into his shoe as into his stomach. 

The majority of the cases of dyspepsia seen by the 
physician show a lack or shortage of more than one of 
the principal enzymes. Therefore, if we are wise unto 
our day and generation, we refrain from the arduous 
duty of seeking the elusive individual enzymes and 
simply recall that Peptenzyme is a combination of all 
the ferments utilized during the process of digestion. 
Why, therefore, seek the Elysian fields when they spread 
out before our enraptured vision } 

The mere digestion of food should not, however, 
be regarded as Peptenzyme's only reason for existence. 
While the replacement of missing digestive ferments 
is imperative, digestion cannot successfully be effected 
if the digestive cells are impaired. Physiology teaches 
that when indigestion is manifest there is a strong 


Ulcerations of Intestine 


Tubercular 


Typhoid 



The difference between typhoid and tubercular ulcers is very 
characteristic. The typhoid ulcer is oval and runs parallel to the 
long axis of the gut. The tubercular ulcer is rarely oval, and 
runs at right angles to the long axis, often girdling the bowel. 














likelihood of cell deterioration or destruction. Some 
cells are down and others are out. Like a human beings 
those that are down need regeneration and those that 
are out need replacement. 

Peptenzyme steps to the forefront and does the 
work, revivifying the tired out cells and taking over 
the duties of those which have completed their tasks. 
The action of Peptenzyme is a three-fold one: 

(1) As A POWERFUL DiGESTANT, in that it 
digests every form of proteid food, converts 
starch, inverts sugar and emulsifies fats; 

(2) As AN ACTIVATOR of enzymes of low¬ 
ered efficiency, embodying as it does the vari¬ 
ous substances which have the power of 
arousing the secreting cells to activity, one of 
the first effects of Peptenzyme is its pro¬ 
nounced activation of the various gland 
secretions; 

(3) As A NUTRIENT for enfeebled digestive 
gland cells, thus effectually restoring their 
functional capacity. It is this effect on the 
nutrition of the digestive gland cells that 
largely accounts for the permanent benefits 
that so notably attend the use of Peptenzyme. 

The raison d'etre of Peptenzyme has been made 
clear. It carries every known digestive ferment, abso¬ 
lutely unchanged by physiological or chemical action, 
unaltered in structure, functionally perfect, into the 
human alimentary tract where it activates and nourishes 
the cells and assumes all the hydrolizing and converting 
functions of digestion. 

When Should Peptenzyme be Employed.^ 
Peptenzyme should be employed whenever there is 
the slightest digestive upset. A physician paraphrasing 
a popular couplet says—^“Six Peptenzyme Tablets a 
day, will keep indigestion away’'. 


When American medical men, like their Chinese 
confreres, are compensated only for the preservation 
of the health of their patients, such use of Peptenzyme 
for prophylactic purposes will surely be in vogue. Be 
that as it may, all people with faulty digestion would do 
well to utilize Peptenzyme until such a time as Nature 
has mended its fences and is able to carry on alone. 

In every condition accompanied by digestive distress 
Peptenzyme can and should be prescribed, the dosage 
of preference being two tablets before, and two after, 
each meal. Peptenzyme Powder may be used in place 
of Peptenzyme Tablets, 5 grains of the powder being 
equal to one tablet. 

The principal conditions in which its use is indicated 
are— 

Functional Indigestion^ Acute^ Chronic and Alcoholic 
Gastritis^ Nervous Dyspepsia^ Intestinal Indigestion^ 
Colic of Children^ Duodenal Catarrh^ Entero-colitis^ 
Vomiting of Pregnancy^ Sea-sickness^ Loss of Appe¬ 
tite^ Heartburn^ Gastralgia. 

Peptenzyme actually takes up the stomach’s burden 
and carries on until Nature is again ready to act inde¬ 
pendently. 



[ 12 ] 














his rounds. 


HE time must come in the life of every physi¬ 
cian when he regretfully discards his good old 
horse and buggy and decides he needs a 
bright, new shiny motor car to carry him on 


But when he needs a “vehicle'’ to “carry” his dis¬ 
tasteful drugs, then is the time that he thinks promptly 
and first of Elixir Peptenzyme. 


Elixir Peptenzyme has all the qualifications of a 
vehicle—it is palatable, neutral in reaction, contains no 
sugar and consequently does not produce fermentation, 
and, best of all, it has a powerful digestive action. 


The physician hits two nails on the head by using 
Elixir Peptenzyme as a vehicle, first, by disguising the 
taste of unpleasant drugs, and second, by taking care of 
the digestive disturbances that invariably result in tak¬ 
ing drugs which upset the stomach. 

Among the drugs easily prescribed when Elixir 
Peptenzyme is employed as a vehicle are— 

Arsenic Compounds^ Strychnin and Nux Vomica^ 
Valerian^ Cascara^ Bismuth^ Iron in its various 
forms^ Iodides^ Bromides^ Salicylates^ etc. 

For example, one teaspoonful of Elixir Peptenzyme 
will dissolve and effectively disguise the taste of 15 
grains of sodium, potassium or ammonium bromide, 
sodium or potassium iodide or sodium salicylate.

Albuminuria is invariably greater in twin pregnan¬ 
cies, suggesting that it may be partly due to the 
increased abdominal pressure. 






















Being neutral in reaction, Elixir Peptenzyme can 
be used to carry all sorts of ingredients, there being no 
cause to fear lest it prove incompatible with other in¬ 
gredients of a prescription. 

As Elixir Peptenzyme contains no sugar^ it possesses 
a distinct advantage over all other vehicles. Glycerin 
takes the place of sugar—consequently there is no 
danger of fermentation or other gastric upset, such as 
follows the use of the ordinary vehicle. 

Another advantage of Elixir Peptenzyme is its low al¬ 
coholic content. As glycerin is a highly regarded pre¬ 
servative, the amount of alcohol in Elixir Peptenzyme 
has been reduced to a minimum, being very much 
lower than in other products used for a similar purpose. 

In a nut shell. Elixir Peptenzyme will make any pre¬ 
scription more palatable. 

Elixir Peptenzyme in Vomiting of Pregnancy. 

There are a number of different theories as to the 
causes of vomiting of pregnancy, but whatever the 
causes of this unpleasant syndrome may be, it is a 
nausea and should be treated as such. 

Elixir Peptenzyme offers the patient the greatest 
possible benefit. The condition is physiological and 
the treatment should also be physiological. Elixir 
Peptenzyme is physiological digestive product and takes 
the entire burden off the stomach. Consequently, it is 
the ideal remedial agent for use at such a time. 

Let us briefly confer on this subject. Practically 
fifty per cent of pregnant women suffer from the nausea 
and vomiting of pregnancy in a greater or less degree. 
With some it is only a temporary matter soon to depart, 
with others, a bed of pain would be a comfort compared 
to the terrors of the condition. More than one woman 
has passed the period of her gestation in recumbency, 
so severe is her condition. 


[ 15 ]

Whether the patient vomits mucus or food particles 
or merely retches without result, or whether hypere¬ 
mesis gravidarum be the result, the woman’s condition 
excites pity and a demand for assistance. Elixir Pepten- 
zyme extends a helping hand and, better still, it carries 
her through the tight places and deposits her upon the 
banks of comfort. 

The gentleman from Missouri and other states in 
the doubtful column asks— Why? 

Because vomiting of pregnancy is a nausea and 
should be treated as such. 

Almost from the time of conception the body begins 
to assume new and very different functions. As the 
gravid uterus rises farther and farther it causes dis¬ 
placements of the other abdominal organs. Although 
these organs never speak in an intelligible language men 
can understand, they do protest by causing gastric 
acidity, sour eructations, heartburn and other phases 
of indigestion, bladder irritability and the like. 

This is where Elixir Peptenzyme knocks at the door 
and offers and assumes some of the burden. The 
stomach is the chief complainant, so Elixir Peptenzyme 
just naturally relieves the stomach of its heavy labors, 
leaves it, as it were, to do the upstairs work, and 
performs the heavy culinary duties itself. 

Doubting Thomases need only observe the action 
of Elixir Peptenzyme on a patient with morning sick¬ 
ness to appreciate the full import of these remarks. 

The woman who dares not get up until her sickness 
has come and gone (and many do not get their morning 
sickness until late in the afternoon) changes from a 
fearsome person to one to whom life offers all that is 
bright and joyful. ‘‘01 Marse Gloom” takes his 
departure and “Merry Sunshine jes nachally steps in”. 

The gravid woman often cannot take medicine but 
she ingests Elixir Peptenzyme with avidity, because of 


its palatability as well as for its beneficent action. At 
times during the pregnancy the physician may desire 
to prescribe drugs to the patient. Here Elixir Pepten- 
zyme acts again as a vehicle and digestant and earns its 
laurels in both. 

The time to prescribe Elixir Peptenzyme is the 
moment the first signs of nausea appear and it can well 
be continued throughout the period of pregnancy. Not 
only does Elixir Peptenzyme possess prophylactic pow¬ 
ers, but by aiding the stomach in its work of preparing 
the food for absorption, it gives the patient strength 
and resistance for the critical period toward which 
she is looking with growing anticipation and curiosity. 

In brief, we have the case of a physiological product. 
Elixir Peptenzyme, aiding Nature by digesting food in 
the gastro-intestinal tract, so that another physiological 
act—the bearing of a child may be successfully accom¬ 
plished. 

If Elixir Peptenzyme had no other function in its 
professional career than to relieve pregnant women 
of the distressing and sometimes dangerous condition 
of the vomiting of pregnancy, it would have accomp¬ 
lished a mission which would earn for it that highest 
reward^—the appreciation of good women. 



[ i8 ] 

















Mffervescent"^ GtxuiuCe^ 


PeptMi^i^nie 




HE time comes in the practise of every physi¬ 
cian, and sometimes it is rather frequent, 
when we must show our patients. They de¬ 
mand a drug with quick action—with a kick. 


For instance, in this day and generation, many per¬ 
sons look upon a meal as a thing to be dashed off lightly, 
hurriedly, even madly, that no precious time may be 
wasted at table. 


What shall the physician do to the patient who 
suffers from distress after this hasty absorption of un¬ 
chewed food, via oras, into an unsuspecting and sorely 
tried stomach? The distress is very acute. He has 
heartburn and a stomach so full of gas arising from the 
fermentation of a lot of undigested food, that he feels 
it is a pity he cannot dispose of some of it to a balloon 
maker. 

The patient suffering with this condition demands 
immediate relief. Give him Peptenzyme in any form 
and results are bound to follow, but they are neither 
sudden nor spectacular. 

On the other hand, put a teaspoonful of Peptenzyme 
Effervescent Granules in one-half a glass of water or 
vichy, mix vigorously and let the would-be gas salesman 
drink while effervescing. Very shortly we note that 
‘‘ the gas begins to move”. It moves with speed, bringing 
up the gaseous formations, relieving the unpleasant 

[ 19 ] 













(i) To relieve pain, the patient uses strong pressure. Sometimes 
gastralgia is indicated, an irritation affecting the (2) sympathetic 
nerve plexuses; or lead colic, a metallic irritation of the terminal 
nerves or (usually) some other non-inflammatory condition. 


[ 20 ] 

























and painful epigastric distention, and producing a 
sense of physical well-being. 

Peptenzyme Effervescent Granules will be found 
especially effective in the functional digestive troubles, 
which are so prominent a feature of neurasthenia and 
neurotic conditions in general. Prompt relief is afforded 
as a result of relaxing the spasmodic condition, bringing 
up the pent-up gas and removing the disagreeable sense 
of fullness and distention. 

The ‘dump’' in the stomach, so distressing to the 
nervous dyspeptic, fades like dew before the sun in the 
presence of Peptenzyme Effervescent Granules. 

This feature alone would justify their employment, 
but one must not lose sight of the fact that, like the 
Tablets, the Granule form of Peptenzyme contains all 
the digestive enzymes and performs exactly the same 
functions as the other forms, being especially indicated 
as a powerful and efective means for the rapid relief of 
indigestion^ nervous and fermentative dyspepsia^ gastral- 
gia^ flatulence^ atonic indigestion^ epigastric depression and 
indeed all forms of gastric distress. 

There is, however, about the Granules a clash, a 
snap, an eclat that carries a distinct appeal. They 
do not constitute a medicine, which we so often regard 
as obnoxious. On the contrary, the Granules offer a 
sparkling drink, as full of therapeutic value as a cocoa- 
nut is of milk, but tasting precisely like a soda foun¬ 
tain beverage. This new form of Peptenzyme provides 
a delicious sparkling beverage, cooling and pleasing to 
the taste, and entirely free from any taste of medicine, 
yet pregnant with therapeutic value. 

Peptenzyme Effervescent Granules therefore com¬ 
bine palatability with rapid relief and permanent bene¬ 
fit, and is the digestant of choice in those many forms of 
gastric distress, where speed of action is an essential 
desirability. 

























OMEONE has said that “the happy day may 
come when we shall eliminate all greed, 
selfishness and wickedness from the world, 
but never this side of Paradise, will we 
abolish constipation”. 

Medical science has done much to spur the refrac¬ 
tory bowel to complete its functions. Public health 
education has demonstrated to the people the necessity 
for keeping the intestinal tract clean. 


Probably no one factor in medicine has been as 
potent in this connection as physiological therapy, 
the science of effecting physiological changes by physio¬ 
logical methods. 

To revert to a common example, if we break the 
steering rod of our Ford, we do not attempt to replace 
it with a rod built for a Rolls-Royce. On the other 
hand, we turn to the old principle— similia similibus 
curantur —and act accordingly. We use Ford parts in 
a Ford and in the practice of medicine, the part of wis¬ 
dom bids us to follow the same course of reasoning. 


JVe prevent a physiological upset by putting the proper 
physiological methods into effect. 

We know that the bile is the great, natural agent 
for keeping the intestinal tract in order. It might 
almost be regarded as a policeman, whose duties it 
is to tell the extraneous elements in the tract to move 
on. When the bile is on its proper beat, carrying 


[ 23 ] 













out the usual functions, they do move on with certain 
regularity and we hear nothing about constipation; 
but let this constable take a few days off and affairs 
on the beat may resemble a New York east side street 
when two gangs accidently cross each other’s pathway. 

Being a natural laxative, bile keeps the intestinal 
contents moving. 

Physiology also teaches us that when bile is absorbed 
from the intestinal canal, the secretion of bile is in¬ 
creased. It likewise imparts to us the information that 
peristalsis is directly dependent upon the proper flow of 
bile. 

Another physiologic axiom is that bile inhibits 
bacterial activity. Bile is a necessity in keeping the 
unruly bacteria in check, lest they so multiply in the 
intestinal waste-matter that the very old heck would 
result. 

It is obvious, therefore, that if law and order are to 
prevail in the alimentary region, the flow of bile must 
continue uninterruptedly, 

Usually, constipation means a cutting off of the 
supply of bile and a consequent slowing down of 
peristaltic movement. The gastro-intestinal parts, in 
the event of such a contingency, must be supplied with 
that which is lacking. That is the function of Pancro- 
bilin. 

This product is an exact replica of the bile of the 
human body. It is dehydrated^ removed from the animal 
and transformed into Pancrobilin for human use^ with¬ 
out changing its physiological ability to exert its influence 
one iota. 

What could be more logical or natural, therefore, 
than to prescribe Pancrobilin, which contains honest-to- 
goodness bile itself, to a person whose liver is refusing 
to do an honest day’s work? 


This lying down on the job by that much abused 
organ, the liver, is not an unusual happening. In some 
instances, the hepatic derelictions are noticeable by 
constipation; in others, by dyspepsia, auto-intoxication, 
intestinal fermentation and other conditions of similar 
character, all indications of general cussedness on the 
part of the liver. Now that organ is an organ to be 
humored, even as physicians sometimes are compelled 
to humor a finicky patient. It needs a bit of coaxing. 

Let Pancrobilin be your guide^ to paraphrase a 
colloquialism. Pancrobilin contains every physiological 
element necessary for the liver to aid itself in getting 
back to work, and is able to assume all functions of the 
bile whenever the liver is unable to furnish the normal 
quantity required. 

In our enthusiasm regarding our ability to “put one 
over” on the liver by replacing the bile which it refuses 
at times to secrete, we must not lose sight of the pan¬ 
creas, an organ of real importance. Its important 
ferments, Amylopsin, Trypsin and Steapsin play a 
mighty important part in the digestion of food. 

Oftentimes, the pancreas, taking an example from 
the liver, quits work and fails to release enough Amylop¬ 
sin, Trypsin and Steapsin to help complete the digestive 
.cycle and intestinal indigestion or fermentation—so 
often the forerunner of constipation—results. 

Pancrobilin is the logical answer^ for, in addition to 
the dehydrated bile in Pancrobilin, are also to be found 
all the enzymes^ hormones and other internal secretions of 
the pancreas. This important organ has likewise been 
metamorphosized so far as location is concerned, though 
not as regards its action, and transferred body and bag- 
gagefrom the animal to Pancrobilin for human consump¬ 
tion and action. 

Pancrobilin is thus ideally prepared to properly treat 
those cases of constipation, caused by intestinal indi¬ 
gestion arising from incomplete or imperfect action of

the pancreas, as well as those cases in which the presence 
of bile is of paramount importance. 

This is particularly true, when, as so frequently hap¬ 
pens, the liver and the pancreas get together and decide, 
as some men have been known to do, to take a “vaca¬ 
tion” when none was due them. 

The rational treatment oj constipation^ therefore^ lies in 
inducing and maintaining natural digestion and elimina¬ 
tion of waste. We have seen that the secretion of the 
pancreas and the biliary ducts are essential to both 
these desiderata. The pancreatic enzymes are essential 
to proper preparation for resorption and metabolism, 
while the flow of bile serves as a zyme-excitor and as a 
powerful stimulus to peristaltic action. 

When Nature is remiss, Pancrobilin can be depended 
on to keep the great drainage canal of the human body 
clean^ clear and properly functioning. 

In treating habitual constipation, the physician 
will do well to make the product fit the patient. When 
it comes to dosage, every individual is a law unto him¬ 
self. A dose that will affect one person is of no avail 
to another. As a general rule, one Pancrobilin Pill or 
one tablespoonful of Pancrobilin Liquid may be taken 
after each meal, and increase the dose only if necessary. 

The purpose of Pancrobilin is to re-establish a physio¬ 
logical function temporarily abandoned by Nature. It 
is not an evacuant, but a builder and its action is not 
always immediate. Pancrobilin should therefore be 
employed for a sufficiently long time so that its influence 
may be permanently felt. 

It is, of course, well understood that careful atten¬ 
tion should be paid to the condition of the liver during 
pregnancy. Constipation is the rule rather than the 
exception. For obvious reasons, care must be taken 
in the selection and use of agents to keep the bowels 
open and the liver active. For such purposes, Pancro- 


bilin is the ideal agent, since it contains no drugs and 
acts both upon the bowels and keeps the liver function¬ 
ing actively. 

Pancrobilin is especially valuable after every sur¬ 
gical operation. The normal effect of Pancrobilin is to 
increase intestinal peristalsis. Hence, it overcomes at 
once the partial paralysis of the bowel movements, 
that usually follows the administration of ether. Again, 
by reason of its antiseptic properties, gas formation is 
inhibited and the patient is thus free from distressing 
'‘gas pains’". Normal peristalsis being thus restored 
by Pancrobilin, the bowels move naturally in due time, 
a resort to cathartics is unnecessary, and the recovery 
is along physiological lines. 

Gall-Stones are the physician’s bugbear. Small 
doses of Pancrobilin have a tendency to prevent their 
formation by increasing the bile flow and preventing 
concentration and possible gall-stone formation. 

To summarize, because Pancrobilin extends Nature 
a helping hand, it is invaluable in the treatment of 
Intestinal Indigestion, Hepatic Torpor, Biliousness, 
Gall-Stones, Intestinal Fermentation and to overcome 
and prevent Constipation.

UMAN life Is dependent upon the proper func¬ 
tioning of every organ. This is especially the 
case when it comes to the kidneys, for it Is 
then definitely a question of “Your kidneys 
or your life.’' 

Too much attention cannot be paid by physicians 
to the elimination of nitrogen from the kidneys. We 
know that the normal individual should daily rid him¬ 
self of from 25 to 30 grams of nitrogen, mostly in the 
form of urea. If the amount falls short, the patient 
is in for a stormy time. Nitrogenous waste-products 
collect and form irritating bodies in the circulatory 
system, causing a renal irritation and a general systemic 
poisoning. The headaches, the vertigo, the difficulties 
in breathing are often ascribed to disorders of digestion 
and many times the real condition is not discovered 
until the patient has an uremic convulsion. 

Nature does not permit her children to absorb 
lethal doses of slow poison without doing something to 
stay Death’s cold hand. 

In this particular instance she has furnished the 
kidneys with certain enzymes, such as erepsin, urease, 
adenase, guanase, nuclease, etc., whose business it is to 
show the way out to the end-products of nitrogen or pro- 
teid metabolism in the blood. Usually they are “on the 
job”. When they are not, the case falls into the hands 
of the physician or in too many instances, unfortu¬ 
nately, the undertaker is the officiating personage.

These cysts are very rare and are probably due to a form of re¬ 
tention. They range in size from a marble to an orange or grape 
fruit and may occur in a kidney showing no other pathological 
signs. Their removal is never followed by recurrence.

If the kidney is not functioning properly, there is 
only one thing to do—and that is to furnish the body 
with the self-same missing enzymes and internal secre¬ 
tions that are normally supplied by the kidneys them¬ 
selves. Right here, is where Nephritin comes in. 
Nephritin is a physiological product, composed of all 
the identical enzymes, hormones, internal secretions 
and auto-nutritive bodies found in the healthy kidneys 
—not a few, but every last one whose habitat is in the 
cortex and the convoluted tubules. 

This physiological product, this duplication of the 
actual kidney^ when given to Mr. Man in proper doses, 
is taken up by his circulatory system. In due course 
these active ferments reach the renal organ. There a 
regeneration is begun, almost a reorganization of the 
kidney. The new replaces the old. Tired cells give way 
to active cells, become rejuvenated and soon the kidney 
is working again. The improvement is first noticed by 
an increase in the volume of urine. The specific gravity 
will gradually increase and the amount of urea secreted 
will become gratifyingly larger. Blood cells and casts 
will grow less and soon pass from the scene. The swell¬ 
ing will lessen with the days, total solids increase and 
improvement will be noted constantly. 

It should be understood that Nephritin should al¬ 
ways be used in cases of nephritis, not as a specific, 
but as a real adjunct to the routine and dietary methods 
of treatment. It is not intended to supersede these 
but as Renault so well points out, '‘it is a therapeutic 
method which should be brought into current use, not 
that it should be used entirely in place of other thera¬ 
peutic procedures, but simply as an adjuvant to these 
methods.'' 

The normal routine procedure can be summarized 
in a nut shell: Put the patient to bed, give him a glass 
of hot distilled water, open the bowels freely, order a 
light diet, cut out proteids, reduce carbohydrates, give 


very little salt, withhold all alcohol, alkalanize acid 
urine, and correct any other physical derangements, 
looking especially for foci of infection. 

And above all—don't forget that the sooner the 
patient with kidney disease is put upon Nephritin, the 
better the results. 

Nephritin should be used in all conditions in which 
there is an involvement of the kidney function, such 
as Acute and Chronic Nephritis, in Uremia, Albuminuria, 
and the Toxemias of Pregnancy. 

Nephritin shines very brilliantly when employed 
in the acute forms of nephritis—85 per cent, of the cases 
recovering or else showing marked improvement. 

In the nephritis attendant upon influenza, pneumo¬ 
nia, scarlet fever and the like, two tablets three times a 
day often have a prophylactic effect in reducing renal 
complications to a minimum or preventing them alto¬ 
gether. Sometimes in these diseases there is a suppres¬ 
sion of the kidney function without a true nephritis. 
Nephritin will right this and reestablish secretion. 

In albuminuria and the toxemias of pregnancy, 
Nephritin acts wonderfully as a prophylactic. Indeed, 
our reports show that Nephritin administered two 
tablets, three or four times a day between meals, have 
made it possible for nearly 90 per cent, of women, who 
have previously miscarried to go to term. Pregnant 
women whose urine shows the slightest deviation from 
normal should be kept on Nephritin during the entire 
course of gestation. Nephritin is the cheapest and most 
efficient type of insurance the expectant mother can carry, 

Nephritin cannot restore destroyed kidney tissue, 
but in the chronic forms of nephritis more than half 
of the cases treated with Nephritin respond to treat¬ 
ment while 20 per cent, more are materially aided. The 
uremia of this type is particularly helped, the headache 
and delirium often disappearing. There is a lessening of 


blood pressure, insomnia and dyspnea are relieved and 
general improvement is noted. Three to four tablets 
three times a day is the usual dose in chronic nephritis. 

Another chronic type of condition in which Neph- 
ritin is indicated may be characterized as nitrogen 
narcosis, an example being—diseases in which uric 
acid and sodium urate salts form in the blood or tissues. 
The elimination of the nitrogenous waste is an absolute 
essential. In acute conditions, four to six tablets of 
Nephritin every four hours are necessary, and in chronic 
cases, the dose is half that number. After the result has 
been accomplished it is well to continue Nephritin in 
small doses to prevent further trouble. 

Nephritin can always be depended upon in renal 
conditions— 

It is the first thought in renal emergency. 

It is routine treatment in acute and chronic 
nephritis. 

It is the therapeutic support of the convalescent 
kidney. 

It reduces the high blood-pressure of the 
nephritic. 

It opens the kidneys closed by uremic edema. 

It is almost a specific in eclamptic conditions.

ERE Is real satisfaction In being first in any¬ 
thing. Protonuclein (mixed glands) is the 
Daniel Boone of organo-therapy. More than 
twenty-five years before glandular therapy 
had become fully established as a therapeutic measure, 
Protonuclein opened up vistas practically unknown to 
medical men in the early days, and it blazed a wide 
trail over which during the past thirty years thousands 
of feet have walked. 

In short, when organo-therapy was an “infant crying 
in the night, an infant crying for the light’'. Protonuclein 
lighted the way and revealed the path, until today, 
organo-therapy is as firmly established as any other 
therapeutic method. 

To study the formula of Protonuclein is to under¬ 
stand why the product has led the procession. It is 
the embodiment of all the principles of pIuri-glandular 
therapy and the internal secretions^ consisting of a 
physiological association of the Thyroid, Thymus, 
Spleen, Pancreas, Salivary, Lymphatics, Peptic and 
Pituitary Glands. 

What Is the Purpose of Protonuclein.^ 

Its real purpose is to assist Nature in assisting 
itself. Ever and again the old engine which we term 
the human body gets out of kilter. Back-fires and 
flare-ups, termed by the unknowing, break-downs, 
occur, and the whole machine demonstrates that it 
needs a general overhauling. 



I 35 1 















In such cases, we usually find the patient’s resistance 
is low, that the leukocytes, those jolly little blood 
stream policemen, have become remarkably few in 
numbers, and the cells, upon which man depends for 
health and happiness, are on strike. 

The physician, even as the garage owner, finds that 
he must replace lost parts, fix those which need fixing 
and put the machine in working order. 

This can best be done by the administration of 
Protonuclein, a physiological product which is the logical 
answer to the question^ How may the naturalforces of the 
body^ normally inherent in the organism^ be best supported 
and reinforced?' 

In a very large proportion of cases in which a halting 
or perversion of normal functionation is apparent, the 
single answer to the above question is found in intel¬ 
ligent organo-therapy. 

When Nature falls down. Protonuclein can be 
absolutely depended upon to bridge the gap until 
Nature’s forces are re-established. 

Take, for the sake of argument, the state known to 
the laity as “ run down.” The patient’s powers of resist¬ 
ance are very low. Any infectious disease could easily 
find fertile soil in his tissues. He is not suffering from 
neurasthenia, but is far below par^ is low mentally, as 
well as physically. That man is suffering from glandular 
insufficiency —some secretion or other is minus. 

Just put that patient on Protonuclein Tablets—one 
or two every three hours and watch him. His appetite 
will improve, his color will deepen, his step will become 
elastic, and before long his acquaintances will advise him 
that he is “looking fine.” And he will be feeling fine as 
well. His pep will return and he becomes a confirmed 
“peptomist.” 

There is nothing marvelous or miraculous about this 
change. Protonuclein has merely supplied that which 


was temporarily lacking in the patient's physiological 
make up. It has filled up the human engine's grease 
cups, has elevated the oil gauge and the machine com¬ 
mences to move with all its one-time ease and smooth¬ 
ness of motion. 

Take the patient that is convalescent from a siege of 
Pneumonia or Typhoid. He is slow in ''picking up." 
Nothing seems to stimulate his appetite or arouse him 
from his somnolescent state. Try a few Protonuclein 
Tablets every day and note the rapid strides toward 
health. Or that "flu" case that hangs on interminably. 
You fear the sequelae that may develop. This is 
another opportunity for Protonuclein to exercise its 
eflicient offices. 

Again, there are those people who always "take 
cold" with every fluctuation of the thermometer. They 
catch this alleged cold because their resistance is lowered. 
Put those folks on six to eight tablets of Protonuclein a 
day, put wool next their skins, keep them in well venti¬ 
lated rooms, and you will hear nothing more about their 
colds. 

Protonuclein is indicated in all conditions in which 
there is a derangement of the internal secretory system, 
because its employment improves functional bodily ac¬ 
tivity, stabilizes the metabolism of the body and materi¬ 
ally aids nutrition, and we bespeak for Protonuclein 
the thoughtful and discriminating attention of the 
physician, as applied to the treatment of: 

I. Neurasthenia, Nervous Exhaustion, Neural 
Debility, AND the Neuroses. —The use of Protonu¬ 
clein in Neurasthenia is often attended by striking 
results. In this unfortunate state, the internal secretions 
are usually in a condition of persistent inactivity and 
the action of Protonuclein tends to stimulate the func¬ 
tions of the glands and to effect a prompt re-establish¬ 
ment of physiological equilibrium. 


2. The Consequences or Sequelae of the Infec¬ 
tious Diseases, such as the tissue loss and exhaustion 
following Typhoid Fever, Chronic Pulmonary Infec¬ 
tions, the reacting Tuberculous Patient, the Post¬ 
influenzal Invalid, the Scarlatinal Patient, and any 
other similar conditions which lower bodily resistance 
or increase susceptibility to infection. 

3. The Perversions of Tissue Leading to Pro¬ 
liferative Malignancy, such as Carcinoma, Tumors, 
Gigantism, or in Cretinoid or Myxedematous Conditions 
due to Thyroid Deficiencies. 

The tendency of Protonuclein in such conditions is 
to restore that which is lost. We know that in such 
states there is a marked perversion of the endocrine 
system. Everything is topsyturvy and the top of 
the world is on the bottom. The secretions from the 
endocrine glands are deficient or hyperactive according 
to the condition, there is a lack of coordination between 
the secretions of the different glands, and in practically 
all of the disorders the defensive forces are weak, per¬ 
mitting the ingress of invaders. 

The function of Protonuclein is to regulate the 
amount of secretion and to restore coordination among 
the various glands. 

4. Pernicious or Obscure Blood Involvements 
accompanying or following the various dyscrasic states, 
such as Pernicious Anemia, Leukemia, etc. 

5. Malnutrition following Exhaustive Condi¬ 
tions. —Asthenic States resulting from Hemorrhagic, 
Suppurative or Septic Processes, and the general Lack 
of Vitality preceding and accompanying Senile Degen¬ 
eration. 

6 . Lastly, but by no means leastly. Protonuclein 
so substantially restores the defensive forces of the body 
that the increase of the white blood corpuscles permits 
them to exercise their normal duties of phagocytosis 
and prevents the future ingress of pathogenic bacteria. 


Whenever the physician sees a case that shows a 
physiological upset, that case of obscure origin^ he is safe 
in prescribing Protonuclein. 

In respect to dosage, little can be said except of 
the most general character, for each patient presents 
an individual problem. As a general rule, two to three 
tablets three times a day will prove an effective dose, but 
with the evolution of more recent ideas in respect to the 
desirability of using small doses of gland products for 
their activating or “tickling’’ effect, as some one has 
termed it, smaller doses may be used. 

In many cases in which the glandular deficiency is 
marked, large doses of Protonuclein may be necessary 
to replace, or to act, temporarily at least, as a substitute 
for weakened and deficient glands, while at the same 
time they are being restored to normal activity. 

The above is but a general outline of the therapeu¬ 
tic field of Protonuclein, which, in a nut shell, may be 
said to include the treatment of all depressed, debilitated 
or devitalized states requiring endocrinal reinforcement. 

In a word. Protonuclein restores physiological bal¬ 
ance—and physiological balance means health and phy¬ 
sical well-being—by correcting derangements of the 
internal secretory system. 













To carry food into ileum, patient lies on left side (i) while food 
is administered. Then he lies prone (2). Then elevates hips(3). 
Finally, turns on right side (4). Liquid food, partially 
pre-digested, is advantageously used. 


Rectal Feeding-

GENERATION back it Seemed to the unfortu¬ 
nate patient, especially if his years were tender 
and his susceptibilities of the proper type, 
that his mother aided and abetted by old 
Doctor Blank, poured down his protesting gullet nause¬ 
ating mixtures which had been concocted by Beelzebub 
himself after long experimentation. 

Those were the days of inelegant pharmacy when 
no attempt was made to appeal to the palates of those 
who had the misfortune to be ill. How many of us 
have felt that the medicine was worse than the disease 
and how often would we have suffered in real glee 
could we have escaped the noxious potions which were 
prescribed for our alleged good. 

And then when outraged Nature had finally over¬ 
come the ravages of the disease and perchance (as we 
thought) had counteracted the effect of the medicine, 
how weak we were and how pepless. Nothing tasted 
good. Our gustatory apparatus was gone; it seemed 
as if it might be permanently out of gear. We had no 
appetite and the very smell of food affected our weak 
stomach, as those short, choppy waves are likely to 
affect us when crossing the English Channel. 

So the good old family physician ordered us to take 
a delectable concoction for the stimulation of the 
appetite. Gentian and strychnin were prominent fac¬ 
tors and other constituents made this mess as tasty as 
an old barnyard boot. To make a bad matter worse, 

[ 41 ] * 









he would decide that a bit of cod liver oil would add to 
our cup of cheer and to our length of years. So with 
this type of ambrosial nectar we fought our way back 
to health. Fought is right, and boys and girls who won 
those battles certainly deserved a medal of honor. Can 
we wonder then that Mr. Gloom and all the little 
Glooms hover around us when “in memory’s eye” we 
look back on those dark days and can we be blamed for 
an eructation or two which brings up in its wake the 
awful taste of cod liver oil, mixed with the worm woody 
taste of the gentianized strychnin.^ But, Allah be 
praised! In the ungrammatical language of the news¬ 
paper cartoonist, “ them days is gone forever”. 

Pharmacy has studied, not alone the therapeutics 
of drugs, but ways and means of introducing them into 
the system so they will afford never-ending joy and 
delight to the palate. Not only has the “nasty” been 
removed from medicines, but we now have in Tropho- 
nine a concentrated liquid food which so pleases the 
gustatory nerve-endings that eating soon becomes a 
pleasure to the patient. No longer does the enfeebled 
person turn his face to the wall, when the dinner bell 
is sounded, for he has discovered in Trophonine a food 
which tastes good, acts well and gives him back again 
the strength of which he had been robbed by illness. 

Trophonine is a nourishing and palatable liquid food 
made from Beef, Malt, Wheat, Milk, Cocoa and Egg 
Albumen, quite without equal in our up-to-date dietary. 
To render it of greatest value, it has been partially 
predigested, so as to be most readily assimilated by the 
digestive tract, relieving the sick body to a considerable 
extent of the burden of digestion, saving the patient’s 
strength for the recuperative processes. 

One of the predominating necessities in the prepara¬ 
tion of a food for the sick is to obtain, not only sufficient 
caloric value, but also to furnish a nutriment that will 
be palatable to the most sensitive person. 


In Trophonine we have a food with 4 per cent pro- 
teids, over 12 per cent carbohydrates and a total caloric 
value of 950. In addition to its remarkable value as a 
nutrient, it is so pleasing to even the most refined 
palate that it is ingested with real pleasure and meets 
every requirement for a perfect food for convalescents 
and invalids. 

Trophonine is indicated whenever the physician 
seeks to regenerate the human system. Not only is 
it a nutrient, but it is markedly tonic and can be used 
from the very beginning of an illness, as well as during 
convalescence. Trophonine will be found especially 
adaptable as an adjuvant to other food in the treatment 
of dyspeptics, neurasthenics and anemics. A table¬ 
spoonful in milk, between meals and at bed time, will 
add materially to the patient's welfare. 

When a liquid diet is indicated after surgical pro¬ 
cedure, in intestinal ulcers, cancers, or other alimentary 
inflammatory conditions, in laryngeal cancers, follow¬ 
ing tonsillectomy, in alcoholism, etc., Trophonine is 
an ideal food. It will be retained oftentimes when the 
stomach rejects all other foods. 

Trophonine is a boon to babies suffering from gastro¬ 
intestinal disturbances. When the milk has been with¬ 
drawn, an ounce of Trophonine in 15 ounces of warm 
distilled water can be given to the infant’s entire 
satisfaction and it will be found to have a very soothing 
effect on the inflamed gastro-intestinal mucosa. 

We realize how necessary it is to conserve the 
strength of the patient suffering from pneumonia or 
any of the severe febrile conditions which so debilitate 
the sufferer. This purpose can be successfully accom¬ 
plished by the use of Trophonine which is also a boon to 
the tubercular patient. It stimulates the appetite in 
incipient cases, while in those farther advanced Tro¬ 
phonine furnishes a palatable and assimilable food that 
aids in the prevention of emaciation. 


In brief, the time to use Trophonine is all the time — 
whenever a tonic and nutritive food is called for^ more 
especially (i) during an acute illness, (2) whenever solid 
food is interdicted, (3) in inflammation of the alimen¬ 
tary tract, (4) in all fevers, (5) in convalescence from 
acute diseases, (6) following operations, or (7) to supple¬ 
ment the dietary in any conditions in which proper 
nutrition plays a leading part. 

Dosage and Suggestions for 
Administering Trophonine Daintily 

Trophonine should ordinarily be given cold, one or 
two tablespoonfuls every two or three hours. 

One of the nicest ways of taking Trophonine is to 
slowly pour the required dose into a glass over crushed 
ice. Another very refreshing method of serving Tro¬ 
phonine is to take some shaved ice, saturate it with the 
required dose of Trophonine and eat slowly with a small 
spoon. Or if preferred, the dose of Trophonine can be 
taken in water, plain or charged, milk, egg-nog, etc. 

To sum upy Trophonine is strength and life in con¬ 
centration^ delicious and nutritious^ palatable and effec¬ 
tive.

EARS ago Zymocide came Into being and at 
once found favor with physicians. Its ap¬ 
peal was so eloquent that it made and kept 
a distinct place for itself among the count¬ 
less antiseptics. Its virtues sold it, and now decades 
since the physician first employed it, Zymocide with 
little publicity, but with tremendous value, pursues its 
even tenor and continues to produce superior results. 

Composed of Thymol, Menthol, Boracic Acid, Oils 
of Spearmint, Eucalyptus and Wintergreen, Extracts 
of Witch-Hazel, Calendula and Hydrastis, and Sulpho- 
Carbolate of Zinc and Alcohol, Zymocide offers the 
general practitioner a wide range of use. As a mouth 
wash and general toilet accessory, it is most valuable. 

A few drops in a half-glass of water makes a delight¬ 
ful gargle and mouth cleanser. When the mouth is 
thoroughly rinsed with this refreshing solution, decom¬ 
position of stray food particles is prevented and a sense 
of cleanliness, as well as the actuality, is imparted to the 
mouth, being of great value in halitosis. Zymocide also 
makes a splendid dentifrice when used in dilute form. 

Most of the commoner skin affections yield to com¬ 
presses wrung out of Zymocide, two to four teaspoonfuls 
to the pint of hot water. Sunburn, ivy poisoning and 
pruritus sometimes do better when ice cold solutions 
are employed. Urticaria, with its intolerable itching, 
will usually succumb to a Zymocide solution applied 
with cotton pledgets. 



[ 45 ] 












Advanced Hypertrophic Gastritis 

Resulting from Chronic Alcoholism 



The mucosa is formed into ridges from hypertrophy of the con¬ 
nective tissue, becomes tough and inelastic and results in absence 
or decrease of gastric juice. Such changes may occur at one 
point, while at others the membrane appears quite normal. 












The Rhinologist and Laryngologist will find 
Zymocide very useful in rhinitis, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, 
nasal catarrh and similar conditions when used in the 
proportion of lo to 50 per cent in warm saline solution. 

The Ophthalmologist can prescribe Zymocide in 
the treatment of conjunctivitis, blepharitis, catarrh of 
the lachrymal ducts, dacryocystitis, and other ocular in¬ 
flammations. A 25 per cent solution will generally prove 
very eflicacious. 

Zymocide can also be employed in the form of 
washes, on compresses, as a spray or a douche in an eye 
bath. 

The Aurist is often at his wits ends to find a product 
with which he can douche the middle ear in otitis 
media. (In these cases, one part of a hot saline solution 
to one part of Zymocide at a temperature of 103° to 105° 
may be utilized as a douche.) A return flow canula is 
advisable. Some authorities believe that the higher 
the temperature of the solution the greater the chance 
of absorbing the threatening mastoidal inflammation. 
The use of this treatment in a case of acute catarrhal 
otitis media after the bulging membrane has been incised 
will promote necessary drainage and give relief. 

In chronic cases, Zymocide in a warm saline solution 
will aid in checking the discharge and overcoming the 
odor emanating from it, while the stimulating eflfects 
of the Zymocide is of distinct value in promoting the 
healing process. 

The Surgeon will find Zymocide a cleansing agent 
of merit. With a solution of two or three parts of 
distilled water or saline to one of Zymocide, he is armed 
with an antiseptic which can be employed to great 
advantage in cleansing wounds, in dressing ulcers, to 
allay the sting of burns and for a vast number of uses 
in minor surgery. 


Zymocide has a tendency to alleviate pain and as 
it removes all detritus from the wound the tissues are 
left clean, allowing Nature to start the processes of 
healing. The surgeon who keeps Zymocide at hand is 
assured of a most useful adjuvant. 

In general, Zymocide, as can easily be determined 
from its composition, offers great possibilities as an 
antiseptic. In many physician’s offices it is a standard, 
being employed in a wide range of cases. Zymocide’s 
particular province is to retard the growth of micro¬ 
organisms and to prevent the absorption of such 
bacteria. 

Some physicians use Zymocide for cleansing the 
hands, preparatory to using iodine for skin disinfection 
before operation, and as a hand wash in place of alcohol 
after Salvarsan administration. 

The longer the physician prescribes Zymocide the 
more opportunities for successful usage will come to 
his attention. It is earnestly and sincerely recom¬ 
mended to those medical men who may not, as yet, 
have used it. 











For Rheumatism 

Formula: Analeptine is a most efficient preparation 
for the treatment of Rheumatism, Gout and Uric Acid 
Diathesis, and contains the following: Sodium Iodide, 
Salicylate of Lithium, Acetate of Potash, Ext. Black 
Cohosh, Ext. Cascara. 

Action: The Salicylates have especial control over the 
manifestations of Acute Rheumatism, as Black Cohosh 
and Cascara have over the sub-acute and more chronic 
forms. Lithia removes the excess of uric acid and puri¬ 
fies the blood, and Acetate of Potash assists by stimu¬ 
lating the kidneys and increasing the flow of urine. 

It is pleasant to take, does not upset the stomach or 
affect the heart, thus being a marked exception to the 
usual combinations for the treatment of rheumatic 
conditions. 

The usual dose is a tablespoonful after meals. 




















NY persons, from a variety of causes, suffer 
from anorexia and a general letting down 
of vital stability. They need a stimulant, 
which not only stimulates, but at the same 
time builds. This is offered in the form of Roboline, 
a most pleasing, appetizing tonic and nerve stimulant. 

It is composed of the Sulphates of Quinine and 
Strychnine, dilute Phosphoric Acid, Extracts of Oolong 
Tea and Wild Cherry Bark. Anorexia under Roboline's 
pleasant influence gives way to a heartened appetite and 
the nerves are toned as if under the sway of ocean breezes. 

Roboline is indicated in that great class of cases 
in which nervousness is the predominating symptom. 

In all cases of Nerve Debility, Sexual Weaknesses, 
Urogenital disturbances and the like, one or two table¬ 
spoonfuls before meals will give great relief. Roboline 
is especially valuable in sustaining the vitality of the 
aged and of persons convalescent from diseases. 




[ 50 ] 





















The Surgeon 

NDOLENT ulcers will respond to Protonuclein 
Special Powder, locally, and Protonuclein 
Tablets, internally, with astonishing rapidity. 
Burns, wounds and the great variety of open 
sores yield promptly to the healing effects of the Special 
Powder which rapidly promotes granulation. 

A prominent proctologist after cauterizing rectal 
fissures lays on narrow strips of gauze soaked in castor 
oil, containing 25 per cent Protonuclein Special Powder. 
The Powder hastens the healing and the oil, not being 
absorbed, keeps the gauze from adhering, thus mini¬ 
mizing the pain when the gauze is removed. 

Another surgeon gives his operative patients the 
maximum dosage of Protonuclein Tablets before and 
after operation, in the knowledge that he will get 
prompter union, and that all operated patients make 
much faster gains toward recovery when given Proto¬ 
nuclein Tablets. {For complete data^ see pages 35-39 1 ) 

Pancrobilin is another surgical standby. Given after 
a general anesthetic, it overcomes peristaltic stagnation 
which often follows the use of ether, and in addition 
inhibits gas formation. {See pages 23-28.) 

Peptenzyme serves the surgeon as faithfully as the 
general practitioner. Following operative procedure 
when ether has upset the gastro-intestinal tract, Pep¬ 
tenzyme will “settle” the unsettled gastric functions.

Trophonine can be successfully used as a food fol¬ 
lowing every operation. Especially is it valuable in 
those patients whose stomachs reject other foods. 

Zymocide is a most useful antiseptic for the sur¬ 
geon. It can be employed with satisfaction in cleans¬ 
ing wounds, burns, ulcers and open sores, and its value 
is enhanced when followed by an application of Proto¬ 
nuclein Special Powder. [Complete data on pages 
Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat 
Protonuclein Special Powder and Tablets are indi¬ 
cated in a rather wide variety of ophthalmological, 
otological, rhinological and laryngological conditions. 
Among the more prominent are corneal ulcer, phlyct¬ 
enular keratitis, trachoma, chronic otitis media, delayed 
healing following the mastoidectomy, otopyorrhea, 
ozena and atrophic rhinitis. 

Zymocide—that refreshing antiseptic—finds useful 
employment in conjunctivitis, trachoma, phlyctenular 
keratitis, atrophic rhinitis, enlarged tonsils and where- 
ever an antiseptic is needed. [Fulldata on pages 45-481) 
Elixir Peptenzyme is a digestant without equal, and 
has been used as a gargle in follicular tonsillitis and with 
rare success in cases of halitosis. 

One ophthalmologist gives a teaspoonful of the 
Elixir before dropping atropin in the eye, thus prevent¬ 
ing possible nausea, should the atropin go down the 
lachrymal duct. 

Trophonine is a dependable food in those diseases 
in which deglutition is difficult, such as tonsillitis, diph¬ 
theria and after tonsillectomy. [See pages 41-44?} 

Protonuclein Special Powder is especially valuable in 
the treatment of ulcers of the cornea. A small amount 
should be dusted on the ulcer, followed by a gentle mas¬ 
saging of the lid. Protonuclein Tablets should be given 
internally during treatment to improve nutrition and 
raise resistance. [Full data on Protonuclein^ pages35-39?} 


In the journal of Ophthalmology^ January, 1923, 
Dr. H. S. Weaver of Philadelphia publishes an enlight¬ 
ening article on “Protonuclein Special Powder in Neu¬ 
roparalytic Keratitis/' in which two cases of this rather 
rare and extremely troublesome disease responded 
beautifully to this treatment. 

Phlyctenular Keratitis yields to frequent hot Zymo- 
cide compresses—one ounce to ten of water, two drops 
of atropin in the eye two or three times a day, and at 
bed time, a powder of equal parts of Special Powder and 
calomel to the affected cornea. Systemic treatment 
with syrup of iron t. i. d. and Protonuclein one after 
meals, is essential. (Fulldata on Zymocide^ pages py-4.8.) 

Zymocide and Protonuclein Special Powder play an 
important part in the suppurating conditions of the 
middle ear. One part of Zymocide to one part normal 
salt solution makes an ideal douche for the auditory 
canal. Equal parts of Protonuclein Special Powder 
and boracic acid can then be blown in for one week and 
then the Powder, full strength, can be employed. 

After mastoidectomy, unhealed tissues are spurred 
to action by Special Powder, granulations coming from 
the bottom of the wound. Protonuclein Tablets aid 
in raising the resistance of the body. 

Atrophic Rhinitis offers Zymocide and Protonuclein 
a chance to restore normality. After cleansing the nose 
with a spray of one part Zymocide to four parts water. 
Protonuclein Ointment should be applied. Later, this 
can be superseded with Special Powder, three parts to 
one part powdered acacia, insufflated into the nostrils. 

As a douche in the ear and nose, a 10 to 50 per cent 
solution of Zymocide is invaluable. (See pages 

Albuminuric retinitis often accompanies cases of 
nephritis and the Eye-man may be the first to diagnose 
the accompanying kidney condition. 


Nephrltln is of distinct value in treating the kidney 
condition in conjunction with treatment such as tincture 
of the chloride of iron and mercuric chloride directed 
primarily towards the eye condition. {Full information 
on Nephritin^ pages 

The Protonuclein-Zymocide combination is a hap¬ 
py one in enlarged tonsils. By swabbing the tonsillar 
tissue several times a day with a full strength solution 
of Zymocide and by blowing into the tonsillar crypts a 
powder consisting of equal parts of Special Powder, 
powdered cubebs and powdered acacia, much relief will 
be given. This is not a succedaneum for operative pro¬ 
cedure, but gives aid and comfort when enucleation is 
for any reason contraindicated. 

The Obstetrician 

After all, pregnant women suffer from the same ills 
that beset their non-gravid sisters and some others as 
well, so it is reasonable that Peptenzyme, Nephritin, 
Pancrobilin and Protonuclein should be very necessary 
adjuvants to the obstetrician. 

The vomiting of pregnancy is the hete noir of the 
woman who is enceinte and at times is a matter of grave 
concern to her physician: So efficacious is Elixir Pep¬ 
tenzyme in vomiting of pregnancy that many physicians 
make its use a matter of routine with all pregnant 
women. When this product is prescribed as soon as the 
“morning sickness'' commences, the dread condition is 
ameliorated and often nipped in the bud. Elixir Pep¬ 
tenzyme will, at the same time, digest the food and thus 
spare the expectant mother the further unpleasantness 
of dyspepsia. {Full data on Elixir Peptenzyme in Vom¬ 
iting of Pregnancy on pages ij-i8l) 

Another distressing and dangerous condition which 
comes altogether too frequently to the attention of the 
obstetrician is the disturbance of the renal system, ex¬ 
emplified in its severest form by eclampsia. 


[ 54 ] 


Any deviation from normal in the urine of the gravid 
woman may be ripe with serious consequences. For 
that reason we feel that the moment the obstetrician 
discovers any urinary abnormality the patient should be 
put on Nephritin without delay. 

Four Nephritin tablets given three times a day will 
usually overcome albuminuria, and women who have 
previously miscarried will, nine times out of ten, go to 
term with living children if Nephritin be faithfully 
employed. {Further information on pages 

Constipation, so frequently accompanied by hemor¬ 
rhoids as a result, is another of the unpleasant conditions 
to which the pregnant woman is heir. 

One is too apt to minimize the effects of constipa¬ 
tion, forgetting that the kidneys, already performing a 
considerable amount of extra labor as the result of the 
pregnancy, are compelled to do more eliminative work 
if the intestinal tract is not emptied at regular times. 
Consequently, every physician is alert to the importance 
of keeping the alimentary tract free and clean. 

He can sit himself down in peace and comfort after 
prescribing Pancrobilin, for that excellent remedial 
agent will quietly but effectively set out and accom¬ 
plish what it was designed to do. The new broom has 
nothing on Pancrobilin when it comes to keeping its 
habitat clean. {See pages 2^-28 for full details?) 

Protonuclein Tablets should be given to the gravid 
woman who needs more strength. The use of this pro¬ 
duct after forceps or other serious manipulation as a 
guard against infection is good prophylactic treatment. 

One physician writes that he ascribes his freedom 
from infection in obstetrical cases to be in main part due 
to increased resistance brought about by Protonuclein. 

Protonuclein is also of value in menorrhagia, dys¬ 
menorrhea and in the headaches preceding menstruation.
